Be careful of what you let your child watch. Remember, he is very good at retaining information. |
The television, just like most of
the technology that was born in the late 19th century, is one of the
biggest inventions made for the comfort of men. Nowadays, it’s very normal
going to someone’s house and see a TV in the living room, programmed to show
what the owner wants to see.
You probably love sitting on your
couch and watching some sports on sundays, and the news on Monday mornings. But
have you wondered what does your children watch? Perhaps you let them watch
whatever they want to. I’ll have to give you a piece of advice: don’t let them
watch everything on TV, as special needs children, they could be mentally
affected to non-proper contents.
What’s the best channel for my
children? That question varies depending of every specific case. In some cases
there are children who enjoy watching movies appropriate for their age or educational
cartoons that enhance their intelligence. Others might even like watching
complex programming (but not violent), and are able to understand what’s
happening in those shows. It’s in your hands to decide what’s right or wrong
for your children, but be on the lookout for the remote control. Use parental
control in these cases, so your child doesn’t get into the wrong channel.
It’s not just the channels he
watches that you need to control, but the time he spends on the TV. Never let
your children watch TV more than 4 hours (under the age of two). More than that
can create addiction, in some cases their perception or reality gets affected.
It’s important that you monitor this, your child has to accept these terms as
well, or you might have a problem of disobedience.
Special needs children are very
smart and aware of what’s going on, choosing the right channel can be the difference between helping or damaging their growth. It can be hard when your child doesn’t want to listen
because of the TV, but if you show him that outside can be fun as well, he/she
will try it gladly. Want to try sports? Autism
Soccer has the answer for you, preparing your children for what’s yet to
come.
